My husband, Mike, said I was crazy to make a wine no one ever heard of - which made me even more determined. When children in England couldn’t obtain fresh oranges during World War II, they consumed rosehips. When I searched online for a recipe, I Iearned that rosehips are a great source of vitamin C. So when I asked if anyone made rosehip wine, no was the only reply.
I cup them into my hands and admire their resilience and perfect creation.įor years I’d heard that locals made rosehip jelly and rosehip tea from their fruit. Wedding white and Popsicle pink blossoms are mother nature’s gifts of June and September. They peek out like polka dots in thorny green hedges along the popular attraction known as Giant Stairs. Rugosa roses ( Rosa rugosa) line the cliffs and trails of Bailey Island, Maine bringing a sweet and peppery scent that wafts and wanes in the salty air. The rugosa’s rosehip is seen in lower center of the picture with its flower at the top.
